[Mono-list] GC error building mono on windows

It seems the problem is in the test for gc.h in the configure script...

If you edit config.log in the mono dir you will see a message saying what test
failed. You will see that there is a error saying "GC_WIN32_THREADS is
redefined" and so, the script says it didn't find the header. 

I know this is ugly, but I could workaround this problem by commenting the line
in the gc.h file where it says:

#if defined(WIN32_THREADS)
# define GC_WIN32_THREADS    <- this is the line which cause the error.
#endif

As the compiler is called with -DWIN32_THREADS and -DGC_WIN32_THREADS I think
this wouldn't hurt. 

I hope it helps.
